What do you mean exactly? Are you talking about the Sat/mask/Legend textures? Yes, they should be PNG (Sat_LCO.png Mask_LCO.png mapLegend.png), I'm not going to explain more untill you give a more descriptive question since I'm not sure what you're referring to.
well some one told me if i create a map in geo control and save as png ,ill could open it in V3 . http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/smile_o.gif THANKS

Ahh, you mean import a PNG height map!

Yes, but:
- the PNG must be 16-bit (although wiki says 8-bit will work, it doesn't for me).
- it should be the same resolution as your terrain's number of cells.
- you must make a pbl (text config file) to tell V3 how to import it.

See the wiki! (http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Visitor_3_Manual#Terrain)

Okay to get a grayscale png map into V3 you need to make a pbl file to accompany it, do this:

Step 1: Make a txt file and paste this in it:
<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class cfg
{
PNGfilename="world.png";
squareSize=5.000000;
originX=0;
originY=0;
minHeight=120.000000;
maxHeight=735.000000;
};[/QUOTE]

In the pbl file you see "world.png" that should be the name of your png grayscale map, so if you name your png world you don't need to change anything in the pbl.

Step 2: Save the txt file as something like world.pbl, then it should become a pbl file.

Step 3: Make sure your png grayscale is in the the same directory as your pbl.

Step 4: Make a new terrain in Visitor (Project--> new) then set the terrain grid size to match your png, example: png is 512 x 512 pixels---> set terrain grid to 512 x 512.

Step 5: Set your desired cell size.

Step 6: hit okay (or if you know how big your satellite map is you can set that in calculator, can be done later if you wish)

Step 7: Go to Project ---> Import terrain from picture and open up the pbl you made.

Now you should have your grayscale map in V3

PS: If anyone spots an error feel free to correct.

Assuming you don't want any ground textures, you can get you terrain into ArmA by doing the following :

Load your terrain in V3.
Connect to buldozer.
From the file menu, choose export world (this creates a WRP for ArmA use).
Create a config.cpp file (I've posted working examples of config.cpp files in both the huge Tutorial and and "do i need to ..." topics).
Make a PBO of containing your WRP and config.cpp
Run ArmA using your PBO as an addon.

There are more details in the wiki and in the tutorial topic.

I think classes Subdivision and WhiteNoise can be ommited (you seem to use some debinarized config for Rahmadi as reference, maybe it would be better to try SampleMap config).

@<hidden> plumose 219,

To get textures into Visitor you need to convert all of your .PNG's to .PAA's in your P:\Ca\<MyIsland>\data\layers folder.

You also need to change the text in your RVMAT's from .PNG to .PAA ( I use notepad++ to do this to hundreds of files at a time).

The .PEW is your project/world file, an extension of Visitor, or how V3 saves your project. The problem wouldn't be there.

Are your textures showing in Bulldozer and not in-game, or neither?

Sep 9 2007, 19:34

My apoligies plumose 219, if you edited your .PEW file with a text editor or renamed it, it could have become unstable.

Have you created your own sat_LCO.PNG (distant textures) and mask_LCO.PNG (close/ground textures) and imported them into visitor or used pre-made ones?

Below is an image of my P:\Ca\MyIsland\source folder with images I made in GIMP 2. Note that my mask_LCO.PNG is all one colour to get a single texture over the whole map (got sick of the white and didn't want to spend too long editing images).

http://img68.imageshack.us/img68/4180/structuresourceif1.jpg

Both sat and mask images are 5120x5120px for a 512x512 map with 10m cells and weigh in at 46MB and 87MB respectively.

I also used the textures and .RVMATS from BISampleMap and put in P:\Ca\MyIsland\data folder but only used one at first (travajih).
I then imported my sat_LCO.PNG, layers.CFG and mask_LCO.PNG into Visitor which chops up the sat image and extracts to my P:\Ca\MyIsland\data\layers folder.
From there I changed all .PNG's to .PAA using Pal2Pac batch file command and edited all the RVMAT's accordingly using Notepad++
I then opened my project again in V3, entered Bulldozer and textures were visible.

Don't know if this is any help as I'm not too sure how you've set up your folder structures and Visitor parameters.

P.S. I will be releasing part of a Noob tutorial soon that will take you step-by-step through making and texturing your own maps.

Yup, I've had this and figured out that Photoshop does something weird to the heightmap.

Import you PNG to Wilbur and save it from there, then try again in V3.

are you positive the png that you are importing is exactly ^2 ,sometimes this happens if it is not and also when you select size .i.e new 256x256 this mus also be in tune with sixe of png , you must remember this is total size for land and sea not just land mass

tried all them with your examples , looks like it might be what opteryx is suggesting.

Allie, are you using 16-bit greyscale PNG? I have had similar results importing an 8-bit PNG.

My version of photoshop cannot create 16-bit greyscale PNG images.

Allie

Sep 16 2007, 12:25

Thanks you guys,

The wilbur trick worked, i just opened up the terrain.png in it and then save it back as .png 16 bit scale, and its working.

Thanks again for the very, very quick responds.

This is actually my preffered way of making it because i now can just glue together googleearth pictures and make everything out of that one picture.

Bythe way, using fotoshop and corel photopaint, both programs about the same, but both NOT safe PNG's in right format for visitor then.

But no worries, then we just use yet another 3rd party piece of software (really dont get those bis guys, why not release an aplication insted of another piece of script http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/sad_o.gif )

http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/smile_o.gif You indeed see the google earth thingy http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/smile_o.gif

But this is just a test, a lot of touching up sat image in fotoshop is required.

This is just a way of doing it, google earth that is, its a lot of work to get all the pictures, and after getting all the pictures you have to glue them all together (very accurate, best pixel perfect match)

Its very time consuming work because its only posible to take jpg's of a height of about 850 meters, this will result in a picture of a size of 700m wide by 580 m high, so for a landscape coverage you have to take quit some pictures.
my island is about 3km X 3km so i had to make 5 x 5 = 25 pictures for it,
the world size is 5120 by 5120 km, so the rest is water for me and i filled that with a high distance pic, just one as background for the high detail part.

i made a raster jpg and used that in google earth to plot out the pictures. So u know what to take pictures of, figure it out.

The result detail is 1 m a pixel

Big island, i know not really realistic, but again, just the needed parts detaild rest lower detail, i just like the idea of the posibilities with this.

Look at the scale , it is right, the blue are buildings, inbetween building are roads, this is correct scale, i love it.

Why use the save jpeg feature thing when you can press print screen (Print Scrn) and paste (Ctrl +V) into Photoshop or whatever image editor you're using, the save as BMP format for highest quality to work with?

I then imported my sat_LCO.PNG, layers.CFG and mask_LCO.PNG into Visitor which chops up the sat image and extracts to my P:\Ca\MyIsland\data\layers folder.
When I import sattelite+mask I get the close texture in buldozer but no sattelite texture in buldozer nor visitor3. And I have no *.png's in my layer folder.

No errors when importing.. Anyone help please?

EDIT: Solved it, I hadnt changed the path in "Tools\Project Parameters"

EDIT2: "solved it", yeah right... I like arma and ofp and whatever BIS produce, but its annoying with all the searching and learning small trivial stuff that is important but that you cant find easilly.. Setting up visitor3, get all the right imageresolutions and settings, understand the workorder. Nothing is unlogical nor difficult, but its annoying to try&error all the way to the first small island. And whats annoys me even more is that everyone have to do this...
Yes I know about the wiki (one of the sources I try to get the whole picture from..), but I guess that anyone thats finally got this working and understand all the small petty details dont want to expand the wiki, they want to harvest all the hard work in visitor3 instead. I know I would..

I'm not giving up, but I wanted to say this. I suppose I'm not alone.. Sorry.

Sad but true... Currently there is just a skeleton with basic info on wiki, let's hope some of those who succeeded will share their knowledge. Sometimes it is only about ading a sentece or two... http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/wink_o.gif
